Objective To investigate the effects of Huaier Granule combined with TAC chemotherapy on immunologic function and prognosis in triple negative breast cancer patients after operation.Methods Ninty-two cases of Ⅰ-ⅢA stage triple negative breast cancer patients entered the study.They were randomly divided into control group and research group.Only TAC chemotherapy was affected in control group of 42 cases, while Huaier Granule combined with TAC chemotherapy was applied in research group of 50 cases.And we gave Huaier Granule to patients in the first day of chemotherapy.The changes of T cell subset, NK cell were detected in the patients respectively in the first day before therapy and after therapy.The five-year disease-free survival rate and overall survival rate were also observed in two groups.Results Compared with control group, the changes of T cell subset, NK cell had no significant differences in research group in the first day before therapy(P ＞0.05).In the first day after therapy, the level of CD4 + (38.16 ± 5.71) ％ in control group was significantly lower than that (44.67 ± 6.47) ％ in research group(P ＜ 0.05).However, the percentage of CD8 + T cells (28.68 ± 4.06) ％ in control group was markedly higher than that (22.85 ± 3.22) ％ in research group (P ＜ 0.05).The level of NK cell (15.75 ± 3.47) ％ in control group was obviously lower than that (19.46 ± 4.22) ％ in research group(P ＜ 0.05).The five-year disease-free survival rate is 28.6％ in control group, however the five-year disease-free survival rate is 42.0％ in research group, there were significant differences between two groups(P ＜ 0.05).Furthermore, the five-year overall survival rate in research group was obviously higher than that in control group(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Huaier Granule combined with TAC chemotherapy not only enhances immune function but also improves prognosis and quality of life in triple negative breast cancer patients after operation.It provides a positive exploration for anti-cancer research by integration of traditional and western medicine.

Objective To search for clinical appearance and fungal resistance of candidemia in ICU.Methods Thirty-four cases of candidemia in ICU during 2003and 2006 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Twelve of 34 cases of candidemia were C.albicans,and 22 of 34 cases were non-C.albicans,which were 64.71% in candida monilia.Fever and chill of candidemia were 100% and 70.59% differently.Conclusion If there is high risk factor of fungous infection in clinic,at the same time fever and chill appear,and antibiotics treat is inefficacy not effective,it is possible to consider candidemia.

Objective:To investigate the effects of three herb extracts on cell proliferation and collagen synthesis in cultured hu-man dermal fibroblasts. Methods:The human dermal fibroblasts were isolated and cultured with tissue explant culture technique. Im-munohistochemical staining was performed to observe vimentin in fibroblasts. The proliferation of fibroblasts was determined by MTT as-say. Hydroxyproline in the cultural medium was determined by a digestion method. Results:The cells were typical fibroblasts, and the immunohistochemistry staining of vimentin in the cells was positive. The three herb extracts could promote the proliferation of the fibro-blasts at appropriate concentrations in a time-dependent manner. After the 72-hour culture in the medium, 0. 312 5-5. 000 0 mg·ml-1 Aloe vera gel extract, 0. 156 3-2. 500 0 mg·ml-1 Bletilla striata extract and 0. 075 0 mg·ml-1 salvianolate showed significant effects on the proliferation of fibroblasts (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01 vs the blank group). Compared with that in the blank group, the amount of hydroxyproline in the three herb extracts cultural medium was also increased (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). The effect of salvianolate on the cell proliferation was closely related with time and concentration, and the high concentration group could inhibit the growth of fibroblasts as the extension of time. Conclusion:Aloe vera gel extract, bletilla striata extract and salvianolate can promote the proliferation of fi-broblasts and the production of hydroxyproline, which may contribute to the wound healing.

Objective:To optimize the formula of amlexanox nasal thermosensitive gel spray and establish the quality control meth-od. Methods:Amlexanox nasal thermosensitive gel spray was prepared by a cold dissolving method, and poloxamer 407 (P407) and poloxamer 188 (P188) were used as the carrier materials. Central composite design-response surface methodology was used to optimize the formula with the amount of P407 and P188 as the influencing factors and the gel temperature and the viscosity before gelling as the indices. The content of amlexanox was determined by HPLC. According to Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2010 edition), the other indices of the preparation such as appearance, pH, viscosity, content, total spray times of each bottle and the content of each spray were deter-mined as well. Results:The optimum ratio of P407 and P188 was 17. 0% and 0. 9%,respectively . The average recovery of amlexanox was 98. 8% and RSD was 1. 7%(n=9). The quality of 3 batches of amlexanox nasal thermosensitive gel spray met the related require-ments. Conclusion:The formula and preparation process of amlexanox nasal thermosensitive gel spray are reasonable and feasible with controllable quality, which is worthy of further research.
